I have had a couple of the small squishy lumps. I guess they are just fluid build up because we don't drain as well as we did due to lack of lymph nodes. My ENT told me he was looking for pea size lumps or nodules to indicate recurrance (heaven forbid). The soft squishy ones seem to go away in a couple of hours. If anything stays though, I would call the Doc ASAP.
